I know it's not easy to do this but ask yourself why you're so sad. If you can't seem to find an answer, chances are it's something chemical/hormonal. Healing won't come just from medicine: if you don't want to get better, you won't get better, full stop. And this will count as an answer, which leads us to the next paragraph.

If you do find an answer (or more), focus on them. Remember that you control what you feel. If you're always in a dark room, feeling sad and bitter, you'll attract this "darkness and sadness" to you. If you go out, talk to people, work out, you'll be experiencing new things, that you wouldn't be able to feel on your own. Try to incorporate all these new thoughts to yourself. Think of all the good things you have:

1) You have a computer: how many people out there have the opportunity to use this technology? To be enjoying the best science can offer.
2) You have food: You could be starving right now, but you're not.
3) You can read: Think of all those who taught you. They spend their time so you could grow, Neo. Thanks to what you learned from teachers, parents and friends, you're now more intelligent.
4) You're not alone: All right, this is just an internet community, but I remember you once posted a suicide thread and you had ALL of us worried about you, because we cared. We may have never seen you in person, but we read your words, we get to know who you are, and we won't let you give up that easy.
... I could go on and on.

Also you're going to die someday anyway, why would you kill yourself? Doing so will prevent you from knowing what would happen if you stayed alive. If death is better than life, there's no hurry, you can't avoid it anyway. If life is better than death, you'd better enjoy while you can.

I don't think it's a matter of hating life, but rather hating the type of society we all have to face each day...

I feel off and on depressed sometimes - most teenagers do im sure....

you may not think so but im sure there are are lots of people that care about you & love you.

and whatever you do dont commit suicide, its the cowards way out and "Also you're going to die someday anyway, why would you kill yourself? Doing so will prevent you from knowing what would happen if you stayed alive. If death is better than life, there's no hurry, you can't avoid it anyway. If life is better than death, you'd better enjoy while you can."

if you need people to talk to im sure there are many people on the boards here who would be glad to do so

been to therapy? if not, go, and actually give it a chance.

well, to put it simply, being happy feels better than being sad.

so be happy!

listen to this guy. it's not life that sucks, it's the culture we all live in that's fucked us up. when i'm feeling really depressed because of all that sort of thing, it just strengthens my determination to live to see another day and to not give up until I'VE won.

shad0wmaster...i hope some day you'll realize the ridiculousness of that statement, or that you'll read or observe life enough to see the bigger picture, bigger than t.v. and social pressures

they have some stuff about depression, didn;t try any though because I was looking for something else

I don't know if I can relate, but when I am in bad mood, I clean up my room, and if am in REALLY bad mood, I clean the whole house hah

yep. The increasing complexity of life as we progress on and on is becoming difficult to live in and achieve what we want in life. Sometimes I wish we all lived a simpler life.

how many people out there really hate life? i mean really hate it! These past couple of days i have been looking back at my entire life and i have realized that i have been a disturbed individual my entire life.Even as a child i can remember being depressed and having fucked up thoughts in life.I have always been told when im depressed that dont worry things will get better.well, things have not gotten better and i dont have a lot in life to live for.I have been in and out of the hospital for depression over the past few years and im looking at myself wondering if i will ever live a normal life.Im wondering if i will ever be able to get a woman with my fucked up mind to keep me from being so lonely.I am starting to get really scared of myself, thinking that one day im gonna snap and hurt someone or myself.Sometime i feel as if im gonna be one of those people that u read about who went nuts and started shooting people.I dont even know y i am writing this post but i just hope to live to see my 24th birthday cause lately i have given up on life.

Anyways, i dont really hate life, im more confused with where my life is going and that i wont make my goals and live a lame existance of life and it sometimes leads to the issues that you (neo geo) brought up and issues i dont want to bring up.

I really don't know how to help you man I'm losing hope myself.

I think that everybody no matter what should enjoy life and have fun. I have lost 3 friends my age, and I am only 16. I think you should feel blessed to be healthy and be happy you are living. Just enjoy life!
